NGOs by Country
Verified NGO contacts and profiles across 8 countries in Eastern and Central Africa, published every year in print and electronic form.
Find NGOs country by country
The NGOs Eastern Africa Directory is organised by country and then by sector, so a reader can move from a general question such as which organisations work in Uganda to a specific one such as which organisations deliver maternal health services in Gulu. Each country section lists organisations with their contact details, the districts or provinces they serve and a profile of the work they do.
Use the links below to open the country you need. If you represent an organisation, the same pages explain how to be listed in that section, and our services pages cover listing sizes, profile writing, training and partnership facilitation.
Location, not just a head office
Listings record the districts, counties or provinces an organisation actually serves, so a partner can ask for delivery in a named place.
Checked before publication
Our editorial team confirms names, addresses and contacts with each organisation rather than copying an unverified list.
Indexed by sector as well
Every entry sits under each sector it genuinely works in, so country and sector searches both resolve to the same organisation.

Questions about choosing a country section
Short answers to the questions readers ask most often when picking the right section of the directory.
Which countries does the directory cover?
Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda, Burundi, Somalia, South Sudan and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Each has its own country page and section in the printed and electronic editions.
How do I choose the right country section?
Start from the country where the programme runs, not where the headquarters sits. Listings record the districts, counties, provinces or states in which an organisation actually operates, so you can find partners delivering in the location you care about.
Can an organisation appear in more than one country section?
Yes. Regional organisations appear under each country they work in, with the specific districts or provinces they cover recorded in the entry.
